There are a fair number of tours available like this. This company doesn’t rent boats for punting yourself. That said, I would recommend this group especially if you want a leisurely trip. It was a little over an hour, and we were paired with a nice family of ten. Adam, our punter, had a lot of history at hand, and did a great job describing the history of buildings and bridges we saw.

Arundel hotel house was perfectly close to the punting activity. We didn’t realize that if you book through Expedia you pay a fee for a car 18 pounds. But great restaurant, good free breakfast. Rooms were nice.
